A bathtub, because many people live in shared apartments or small city apartments, and tubby bathrooms often don't have a bathtub. A garden: A balcony is reason enough to celebrate, but a garden - with real grass! - is in a completely different league. Delicious bread rolls from the bakery A normal ritual in the countryside: getting fresh bread rolls for breakfast in the morning. City mice can often only dream of this because of the price or large chains. Air: They're free everywhere, but that doesn't mean they're equally good everywhere. Starry sky: In the countryside, it's romantically bright even when it's dark. Fireplace: A crackling open fire is a blessing for the soul, and not just at Christmas. Pets: In the countryside, you don't ask: "Do you have a pet?", but: "Which one?" They're always free to roam in the countryside. In the city, it's enough for a start-up dog at most.
